Catholic Press Association Book Award: Faith and Science (First Place) "This is a most compelling and creative invitation to see Spirit everywhere present, gifting us with new life and divine energy."
An astonishing synthesis of humankind's understanding of the Great Spirit that energizes, sustains, and runs through all creation.
Poets knew it. Mystics knew it. Indigenous people knew it. Now Diarmuid OMurchu unearths what religion has often forgotten or ignored — the power and presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives and in the breath of all things.

Long recognized worldwide for his innovative and daring insights on the connections between Christian theology and other humanistic disciplines, O'Murchu displays once again his creative imagination and breathtaking ability to range over disparate academic fields to elaborate an innovative pneumatology. He helps us understand how the Holy Spirit dwells in the heart of the whole human history. His new work will inspire and sustain the spiritual journey of people in all walks of life and in all parts of the globe.
